Coding Buddies for better learning & interaction, leverage the learning experience. Anyone interested?

Hi there, My name is Omer, I'm majoring in CS, and right now I'm having summer holidays. Want to learn PHP and MySQL! My current expertise includes HTML, CSS, Wordpress and little bit of networking. Founded two websites, VideoLer.com is one of them. I believe when you have someone to learn and get along, you learn the way a lot better than alone! That's why, I'm interested in having a coding buddy, who could get along, We would help each other and keep track of each other's success and goals, and moreover this would be fun! If anyone is interested in learning PHP and Mysql together then, please email me at the address mentioned below. phonearmy@gmail.com

Best Regards, Omer Mustafa phonearmy@gmail.com FB & Insta: @TheOmerMustafa

If your name is "Omer Mustafa", then who is "Khurram Rasheed"?

But aside from that, I find the concept of a "study buddy" a bit curious since I've always found that one of the advantages of online training as offered here is that it is entirely self-paced. Now I do see the appeal for people enrolled in a structured and/or instructor-led program. But here it seems like it might be contra-productive, at least for the fastest learner of the pair.

But if someone does decide to join in, then I wish the best of luck to both of you. Happy coding!

Steven, this can be counter-productive for the faster learner, but still the concept of "study buddy" differs a lot from the instructor-led program because that way one ultimately gives the responsibility of his/her learning to his/her instructor which in the long run does not yield much. However when you know your goals, your learning tracks (already provided here at Treehouse) then you are responsible for your education besides you just gotta keep yourself motivated and disciplined to what is being offered and study buddy helps in this regards! If you know someone who could join, then please share this post with the one! Thank you. Email: phonearmy@gmail.com

He shouldn't have. That's a violation of the Terms & Conditions (paragraph 3.5).

You should register your own account.
